ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.
I just can't see Monty risking it if he didn't get the assurances he was looking for or if Cumdog wasn't up for the role or challenge. This won't be a "let's go to Australia for a pay day" deal that many other players come for at the "fancier" clubs. He'll be wanting the world cup and to be honest if he knocks in a third or a quarter, even a fifth of the chances he'll get here, he'll get a ticket.
I like the idea of a 433 but for mine Nisbet gets the pine in that formation. His defending and winning the ball is top notch, but his passing is too often underhit in the final third and his shooting, well. There is no one else in the team that can be counted on however to man mark anyone out of a game so it comes at that cost.
I don’t think we can afford to lose Nizzys work rate. Looked a shadow of himself in the FFA cup game despite doing as much as everyone else just because we’re used to seeing him going flat out for 90 mins. Moresche to left wing would make more sense than benching Nizzy
Yeah definitely. That's why I'd rather the 442. If we do change format mid game to chase a game then you'd sit Nisbet and have 2 mids that are more threatening in the final third. Or go 343 and bring either Faz or Miller forward, or sit both seeing as though we've got 5 subs now and bring on Tongyik and a forward.
GOLD.
He's certainly a risk, my mate from Dundee says he's a good player but only if he can knuckle down.....and my mate thinks he can't. Time will tell, if he's even cumming that is.
I'm sure you are not alone. But with Matty injured and an unknown quantity when he comes back. Marcos trying to make call-ups to the Costa Rica team, a compressed calendar due to Covid, the possibility of an extra 7 fixtures including 6 in 11 days a calculated risk is probably worth it.
This
I reckon Monty will keep him in check but I am more concerned about his performance, hopefully, he can hit the ground running here and pick up from his earlier years at Hibs.
Yeah, it would be great if he performs well for us. Even half of those numbers would be great for us with our other potential scorers.
